Progress on Pete’s “ZIA”

It is practically SPARKLING! Beautiful job Pete. I’m glad you are actually boxing this one up!

Pete has many more pictures of this project here:

He also notes that there may have been some sub-conscious Knack wisdom at work when I dubbed his rig “The Zia.” I was thinking strictly in terms of language and ethnic heritage: TIA stands for Termination Insensitive Amplifier. But in Spanish it means “aunt”. But in Italian Aunt comes out as Zia. So Pete’s should be a Zia, right? Capisce?

Well Pete puts an electronic twist on it:

“Once again you are spot on with ZIA (With Z the electronic symbol for Impedance). Thus Impedance (The symbol Z) Insensitive Amp. Thank You.”
